Every March, the Jinming Pool is full of spring, with pink peaches like brocade, green willows like smoke, pink butterflies among the flowers, orioles on the trees, and beautiful spring scenery. The residents of the capital are fascinating and scrambling to go out for an outing in Jinming Pool.

This year's scientific examination was not going well, with ups and downs, causing a sensation in the capital, which really made people in the court and outside the country tremble and terrified.

The number of candidates admitted in the re-examination was 168, most of which were candidates from all over the southeast, northwest and northwest, as well as the rising stars of Bianjing.

The most talked about are the young men from aristocratic families in the capital. They are young and come from officials. They are all talented and beautiful, and are very popular and are highly sought after.

One of them is Xie Yi. Xie Yi became famous early. He participated in the children's examination at the age of thirteen and became Jie Yuan, and was praised by Xie Shisan.

Xie Shisan studied for several years and finally returned home. Now he was once again sensational with the first place in the Ministry of Rites in the three subjects. However, it is a pity that Xie Shisan actually missed the palace examination and missed the top scholar appointed by the emperor.

With Xie Yi's talent, everyone believes that Xie Shisan will not win the championship. Winning three yuan in a row is easy for Xie Yi, but the final outcome is not as expected.

Everyone sighed and regretted those who robbed Xie Yi as the top scholar. Of course, some people also spent their wealth and sold their property for this, and became homeless people who had nowhere to go. They found the door of Xie's mansion to cause trouble.

This matter is a later story, so I won't mention it for now.

It is said that Xie Shisan has outstanding literary talent, elegant demeanor, smart and quick, elegant and beautiful, free and easy, and is not bound by the family at all. Now it seems that this is true. The boy left home to study and now missed the palace examination. I am afraid that even Mr. Xie can do nothing to him in all his actions.

Those who are familiar with Xie Shisan know that he is really sick, but it is just an excuse to not want to participate in the palace examination. As for why, the young master of the Xie family will certainly not tell others that he does not want to show his sharpness and lead to death. If outsiders want to guess, they will not guess this level, but they will only guess that Xie Shisan is afraid that he will be thinking of leaving home to study again.

Another example was Lu Youhan, who passed the imperial examination and passed the imperial examination in one fell swoop, and Lu Xiangchangsun had a picturesque appearance, so the emperor appointed him as Tanhualang. He only heard that Tanhualang was diligent and studious, hardworking and self-invigorating, good at writing and writing. When he was a young man, he was a prince to study and went to the palace and got the guidance of the prince's tutor Wen Shuyi. Now that he passed the imperial examination, he didn't know how many people's eyes were red.

Prince Lu is in a high position and now has a grandson who has passed the imperial examination. The entire Lu family is proud of this.

There is also the emperor's first-class candidate Chen Boyuan, the eldest grandson of the founding county duke. He is less than 17 years old this year, and his peers are far behind. This young master of the Chen family is very low-key and doesn't like to talk to others. People often say that he is very arrogant. However, he is the most agile in the palace examination and has the most outstanding strategy. Now he wins the championship in one fell swoop, and he is naturally very popular. There are people talking about the new top-class candidate in the capital.

These three people are the most famous in Beijing.

There is Shen Da who beat the drum, who was not afraid of power, was brave enough to report, and was talented. He was deeply attracted by the emperor. After passing the re-examination, he was recognized by the emperor for his strategy and the emperor selected the second place.

The Emperor came in the flower banquet at Qionglin, and the emperor was in person. The imperial carriage was very powerful. From the palace to the suburbs, a group of princes, princes and civil and military officials came in a mighty way. Most of them came.

His Highness, who was imprisoned in confinement two months ago, followed closely behind the emperor, wearing a red robe and a red robe. Standing next to His Highness was a silver robe and white robe, embroidered skeleton, a cloud-patterned belt, a goldfish bag, and a white jade pendant hanging on his Qin King.

I saw his phoenix eyes, a high nose bridge, red lips without any tinge, white skin, gentle appearance as jade, elegant and subtle, and unattainable.

Zhuang Jing returned to the distance, and when he looked up, his eyes lit up, and he whispered praise, "I thought Lu Tanhua was the ultimate gentleness, but I didn't know that there were people who were as beautiful as jade, and were precious but not gorgeous. I don't know which adult was in the silver robe and gold crown?"

"This is His Highness, the son of the former emperor." Chen Da, beside him, replied in a low voice.

"King of Qin?" Zhuang Jinghui exclaimed, "No wonder he has a noble temperament, but he turned out to be the descendant of the former prince."

"Brother Chen, I really admire him. He knows so many people."

Chen Da explained, "Brother Zhuang praised the Qin King, who was filial to the sky. I heard about the filial reputation of Qin. I heard about the gentle temperament and a similar temperament. I walked next to His Highness, so I guessed that it was His Highness," he said.

"It's still Brother Chen's eyes."

The Qionglin Banquet is also the day when the Jinshi and the people who have passed the imperial examinations were rewarded. The Inner Commission read out the decree loudly, and the voice resounded throughout the Qionglin Garden. Even the people who were watching the fun outside the Qionglin Banquet could hear the reward given by the emperor.

The young top scholar Chen Boyuan was awarded the title of Dali Sizhi and appointed as the Fengxiang Mansion Observation Promotion Office.

The second-level Chen Da was awarded the title of the seventh-rank supervisor.

Tanhua Lang Lu Youhan was appointed as the chief supervisor and served as the chief judge Chenzhou.

There are too many other Jinshi who are enrolled, so they will not be listed one by one.

Although Chen Boyuan and Lu Youhan's official positions are eighth rank, they are still young and have not performed the ceremony of enthronement. The emperor is determined to train and reuse it for two years. This shows that the emperor treats all equally and will not be given a high position just because they are born in a family.

After the long will was completed, the ministers thanked each other, and then the formal banquet was held.

There are banquets and hundreds of performances.

The emperor sat upright on the Linshui Hall, and a water shed was built in front of the Linshui Hall. Four colorful boats were lined up in the water near the Linshui Hall, and above them were the imperial guards performing hundreds of plays, such as dancing big flags, playing lions and leopards, playing big swords, and gods and ghosts. The other two boats were covered with bands.

The king, minister and officials watched in front of the Linshui Hall, with wine and food, and raised their glasses to greet each other and congratulated each other.

The people watched from afar outside the Golden Water Pool, and for a while, the officials and the people were having fun together, and the scenes were harmonious.

During the meal, he said, "The roaring sounds high and climbs to the evening autumn, and the chariot road in the western suburbs is as straight as a string. The flowers in the pear garden cover thousands of officials are drunk, and the more you feel your kindness is more and more sincere."

Some people also think of years of hesitation and unsuccessfulness, and sighed for a long time, "The road to study for ten years is bumpy. I think about it myself, and I am not unforgettable. I have nowhere to talk about sadness when I return home for a thousand miles. Even if I fail to take the exam, my face is covered with dust and my temples are like frost.

When I came to the night of my dream, I suddenly returned to the hall. The little candlelight was chanting the scriptures. I remembered each other without words, but only tears flowed thousands of times, and I thought I could be in the heartbreaking place every year, the moonlit night, and the short examination room."

Yan Hanyu came out of Zhao Xian’s suburbs and found out that this place was very close to Qionglin Garden.

The weeping willows dip in water, and tobacco lays on the embankment, and tourists are endless.

Jinmingchi and Qionglin Garden are opposite to each other in the north and south.

The golden pond in Qiongyuan, the purple road in the green gate, and the road is full of snow-capped flowers.

In the past, Jinmingchi was mostly open during this season. However, today, because the emperor arrived, he held a banquet for the Jinshi in Qionglin Garden. The imperial guards had to perform hundreds of plays in the pool, so fishing was naturally not allowed.

Of course, ordinary people will not be idle. In order to see the emperor's priest, to see the young top scholar's style, and newly admitted candidates are rushing to look at the ceremonial guards.

Yan Hanyu did not join in the fun, but found a place with warm sunshine, leaned against the tree trunk, and looked up at the blue sky.

The clear sky is clear, and the high-pitched singing is heard, sometimes far and sometimes near, and it is clear and pleasant.

The sound of the drum is loud and shakes the sky; the sound of the flute is ethereal, like a dream and a illusion.

It was also mixed with shouts and hawking not far away, and it was so strange that it could be mixed together to make wonderful music.

The mute girl was holding a bag of oil paper in her hand, which was the steamed oil honey cake she bought in the roadside shed just now.

"Thank you, Ya Gu." She said thank you, her smile on her face was warm, just like the warm sunshine.

The mute girl shook her hand with a smile.

"Yan Gu, you eat one too?"

The mute girl just patted her stomach lightly and shook her hand.

"Then I'll eat it."

Yan Hanyu held the steamed cake and heard a familiar voice before she touched her mouth.
